Ihlamur's Creativity vs Roman Wins Him a Big Pot
Level 19
: Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Osman Ihlamur just recalled a hand he played with Jose Roman.
Ihlamur said that Roman opened the cutoff before he three-bet from the button. After the blinds folded. Roman called from out of position.
Two checks followed the A♠7♠Ax flop to see the 8x on the turn. Roman now led out for 85,000, and Ihlamur called.
When the flush-completing 4♠ hit the river, Roman fired again, this time for 185,000. Ihlamur made the call and was shown Kx7x by Roman for a pair of sevens. Ihlamur had that beat with 8x2x in the offsuit variety for a pair of eights on the turn, and the substantially sized pot was pushed to him.
